Abstract

To study the compressive stress, recovery force and permanent strain of foams for footwear midsole, polyurethane(PU), phylon(PH) and injection phylon(IP) foams were repetitively compressed with constant compressive stress. Maximum compressive stress of PU did not decrease with repetitive compression on the constant compressive stress, but that of IP largely decreased. Engineering strain of foams were formed by repetitively compressing the three types of foam. The engineering strain of PU was smaller than that of IP and PH. Compressive stress and recovery force of IP and PH at certain strain were decreased with repetitive compression, but that of PU was not noticeably changed.

스포츠화 중창용으로 사용되는 PU, IP 및 PH 등 세가지 종류의 발포체를 일정한 응력으로 반복압축한 후, 반복압축에 따른 발포체의 압축력, 영구변형, 회복력 등에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다. 발포체의 반복압축에 따른 최대압축력은 PU의 경우는 거의 변화하지 않는 것으로 나타났으나 IP의 경우 최대 압축력은 크게 저하되었다. PU는 반복압축에 따른 발포체의 영구변형은 미소하였으나 PH의 경우 반복압축횟수가 증가함에 따라 현저하게 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. 경도 45인 발포체를 5만회 반복압축 한 경우 발포체의 영구변형은 PU
